WHYYYYYYYYY
>the studio doesn’t see the IP as profitable anymore Lmao these faggots have made absolute dogshit since the hobbit movies and are wondering why it won’t make money
ironically his project seems to have more merit than hunt for gollum, but I want both projects DEAD
>>223575155>no hobbits adventure to walmart to get vaxxed in order to defeat The Nameless Orange Manfeels bad man
amazon killed the ip
>>223575155Gunn-sisters, I'm scared...Are we gonna die next?
>>223575239What about this project was anything remotely resembling merit? At least Hunt for Gollum has some good casting and Serkis said there would be no dei.
>>223575155Nothing would make me happier than to see this gargantuan faggot fail at everything he does.
>>223575155This kike looks like an old retarded woman lmao
>>223575250Nahhh all it would take is someone who actually cares about the characters and themes of the books to make more movies again. If I had my choice it would be a movie about Fingolfin vs Morgoth with extreme violence and no race or gender swapping. Literally 5 billion dollars.
You'd have to be an absolute retard to not see LOTR/Tolkien as a viable property, but I'm guessing Peter Jackson will do Children of Hurin and Fall of Gondolin himself.
>>223575272It hinted that it was post-LOTR, and it kinda read like it was going to be the extension of the creepy epilogue that Tolkien wrote, where it was implied that Morgoth was making a return.As for that gollum project, it sounds thoroughly redundant. I don't care if does or doesn't have Africans.
>>223575239The Hunt for Gollum is LotR's equivalent to Star Wars' Rogue One and Solo.Back when I was 10, 12, and 14, I was more invested in the mainline installments, Episodes VII, VIII, and IX.I showed up for Rogue One, but not Solo.I love The Return of the King, and I really want to watch a new sequel trilogy.I have been all cool with the Skydance merger until this happened.I really really want this decision to be reversed.At least continue working on LotR 4.If The Hunt for Gollum doesn't do well, who cares?Finish LotR 4 and release it anyway.We wouldn't want LotR 4 to become the next Coyote vs. Acme, now would we?
>>223575371I just always thought the Gollum shit was the weakest part of the movies. I couldn’t give less of a shit about him.
>>223575386I have watched The Return of the King more times than I watched the first two, which I only watched once of each.
>>223575155Finally, some good news
They already tried foid LotR on the cheap with War of the Rohirrim and expensive with RoP. The receipts are in. This path isn't how you're going to pay off that monstrous debt.
>>223575345The Return of the Shadow? In that case Colbert would be a horrible choice because he is a mouthpiece for the same satanic elite cults and secret societies that Tolkien was trying to warn about. And there's no proof it would've adapted Tolkien's unfinished work anyway. I doubt Colbert has the creativity to do anything more complex than a Trump allegory.
>>223575155Why did they hire a lesbian to write the show?
>>223575420Wut? TT I get but FOTR is easily the best one.
>the Hunt for Gollum is gonna be like JokerI'm still not sure what the fuck that's supposed to mean
>>223575624>Get those rags off
>>223575648exactly, not profitablejoker 2 lost 200 millions
>>223575648Will they have the part where Gandalf threatens to torture Gollum with fire to get information out of him?Gandalf is a fucking baller in the book. Less kindly grandfather and more cranky force of nature.
>>223575478The War of the Rohirrim was an Anime, and not a mainline LotR entry.The Rings of Power was also not mainline, and not canon to the mainline LotR films, nor was it made by the same people.If The War of the Rohirrim was more like a western animated film, and not an Anime, it might have gotten a larger audience.
>>223575677>"BILBO BAGGINS!"
>>223575677>Well that may have been going a little too far, but to be fair he was really gross and annoying
>>223575155>they're taking the scoops to isengard
>>223575155We make docufantasies that distort actual events into fairy tales. Future is now, old man.
they have been dead in the water since the fat boon-dwarf
>>223575345I was under the impression that Colbert was going to make a "sequel" but it was actually just the hobbits going to Rivendell and experience all of the shit from Fellowship of the Ring that got cut from the movie.
>>223575264Massive ai uprising,thousands will be slaughtered,riots worldwide,atomic apocalypse
>>223575155They haven't released anything good since the original trilogy; only the games were decent.
>>223575239And buried.
>>223575865Amen
so marvel fucking 20 gorthor vs shibble spiderverse gets greenlit but this gets shot down?
>>223575155At least this means they probably won't rape The Silmarillion. The whole reason Colbert was given the job was a big poison pill "fuck you" to Ellison for killing his talk show.
>>223575239The only reason I kind of cared is that maybe there would some decent shots that could be cut into a fan edit of Fellowship.
>>223575754Uh-huh. Hey, if Ellison wants to pile on even more losses so be it
>>223575815>wh..what are you?>I am you, but more jewish
>>223575371>Back when I was 10, 12, and 14, I was more invested in the mainline installments, Episodes VII, VIII, and IX>I started to call you underage, but then I realized that would put you in your 20s now. Oh my god, I'm old.
He still got paid, so he wins. Sadly.
>>223576048Everybody who is born after 2000 is underage for me, I don't care if it's 2016, 2026 or 2036
>>223575155he still got paid for the script chuds
>>223575155So literally nothing changed but the media is trying to spin this as cancelling Colbert. I hate the media more than anything in the world.
>>223575217They just need to add more browns and fags
All these spin offs will fail and just delude the IPif you want to revive interest you need to make a good Children of Hurin movie. The hobbit movies done some damage, RoP is even worse. Just a few more misses and you are where Star Wars is right now
>>223575272>and Serkis said there would be no dei.A bit late for that. Hollywood chose the hill they wanted to die on, and die they shall.
>TWO TOWERS!?
>>223576112As does a prostitute
>>223575420Fellowship is the iconic film, the others were just tag-alongs. This is as true today as it was 23 years ago.
>>223576215Sad but true. While not as extreme, Fellowship is similar to the Matrix in that regard.
They cancelled Colbert's show to show loyalty to trump so I can see them doing this again since they want another mega monopolic merge that previous governments would block.This is how you do business in the US currently- you need to openly bribe and serve orange man.
>>223575217to be fair any lotr movie is gonna be shit simply because hackson won't be on board, and you need someone with his level of autism to make a lotr movie. also it's just unnecessary, lotr is better off surviving on games or animated adaptations of the books.
Studios are so risk averse now that even LOTR isn't considered a safe bet anymore.
>>223576259Peter Jackson made 1 good Tolkien movie
>>223576299oh come off it the trilogy was peak all around, the changes made aren't so insane that they betray the source material, only a cuck thinks thatyeah the hobbit got fucked by the studio and del taco but the fan edits are pretty solid
>>223576350Fellowship is peak all around. Two Towers is very good and has good action but is a step down. Return of the King is a further step down into mid 2000s CGI hell.
>>223575155That faggot will ruin lord of the rings. This is excellent news.
>>223575155>studios dont understand lotr and what went into making it>they failshocked
>>223575329nah this is star wars syndromeonce the IP dies it dies for good
>>223575155this is only news if it happened 20 years ago when there was half a chance be wouldn't poz it to fuck and back. this is us potentially dodging a bullet.
>>223575155>So...SAURONMPH>BOOO!
>>223576112Hey I can't blame him, those kids are pretty expensive
>>223575217>since
>>223576350Fellowship is the only Jackson movie with soul. The sequels were just Marvel-tier CGI shitfests.
>>223576382>>223576787>muh see gee eyezoomers need to be killed
I thought for one minute about how to make more money out of Lord of the Rings and here's my pitch-The Silmarillion as a fake history channel docu-drama-series with a narrator and talking experts in between actors "renacting" the scenes. Like the The History channel did with The Bible.
>>223575155how can I blame this on Trump?
>>223576259>animated adaptations of the booksHey remember when they did their animated adaptation of The Silmarillion, except it wasn't The Silmarillion at all and they made it a story about a person who is literally only mentioned offhandedly in a single line and isn't even given a name, so the screenwriters had to make one up for her all so they could get a girlboss movie in Lord of the Rings?
>>223576692>TWO TOWERS
>>223576350>yeah the hobbit got fucked by the studioIt wasn't the studio's idea to shoot at that weird framerate and to have horrible facial prosthetics for the Dwarves
>>223575217>take popular IP>fill it with nigs and fags>turn it to shit>people stop consuming>"I guess people just don't like IP anymore!"
>>223575371>zoomers have become this shameless about their ageLurk moar you little twerp
>>223576082This but 1990
>>223575155Thank fucking God. Nobody wants to see a politically motivated Lord of the Rings adaptation thats an allegory for Democrats fighting against Trump and MAGA.
>>223575155>we want to wait to see how this fanfic shit that nobody asked for and nobody wants to see does firstngmi.
>>223576252The merge isnt “monopolic” (not a word) in the slightest. I can name 10 other studios currently operating in the US
>>223575155>Trump's buddy buys the studio>Instantily shitcans Clobert's love project TWO SCOOPS
>>223575155>Stephen Colbert's Lord of the Rings movie what the fuck
>>223575217>since the hobbit Eh, anon...
>>223581499The first one was alright desu. It still ranks below the LOTR trilogy, but it's good enough to watch.
>>223575155Trump won
>>223581512No it's not. That's like saying True Detective Season 2 was a decent show. In both cases they should never have been made.
>>223575345>It hinted that it was post-LOTR, and it kinda read like it was going to be the extension of the creepy epilogue that Tolkien wrote, where it was implied that Morgoth was making a return.Are you an idiot? Morgoth doesn't "make a return" he comes back at the end of days because they exiled his ass beyond time and space in the void so that he was seperate from Aule and Middle Earth. When his return happens that means it's fucking Armageddon.
>>223575217This, bring back Petrov Jacksonov.
>>223578691how could this have happened?
>>223575155Oh thank god.
